Mon, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000http://2025166064#comment-33217I can say this as a RSS reader and publisher: There is a blog that publishes only teasers. I read the teaser, and unless it *really* interests me (which isn’t very often) I don’t open it. Those that publish full content, I almost always read in full. The blog with teasers has much less relevance with me.

The RSS feed reader that I use is Thunderbird. My favorite feeds are those that load up the permalink in the feed window (maybe they just include full HTML?).

Feed: is a very good way to do this.

Some statistics :
These stats are based on a sample of 3500 users who downloaded and installed our customisable rss reader.

On Average 15% of all these installs have used the reader within the past 48 hours.

A customised reader for a fan site or media/newspaper 44-50% of users who downloaded have used the reader within the past 48 hours

The sports fan website the reader was released to the public for initial trial for 36 hours more than 1 month ago and was downloaded 544 times (260 have used the reader within the past 48 hours still.
Download sites with no explanation of what rss is ranges from 5.5% to 15% in total continued to use the reader the last 48 hours.
Most complaints in these readers where unable to unsubscribe from brand feeds.
Did not want msn search as rss, but would have preferred google.

Blog Sites 18-26% continued to use and had used the reader within the past 48 hours.
Students customised reader for university and accessing secure university email information 60% have used the reader within the past 48 hours

37% of people did not take time to select their country during install.
25% of people allowed feedrank statistics (Our own staistical reporting measuring tool). This jumped to 60% when time was taken to show why statistics where being reported.

23% of people who read an rss feed clicked through to read the rest of the article at the website.
When “notice” channels where enabled out of 320 users for a particular 48 hour period 110 clicked through to the website for more information, the advertisement was very targeted.

We need to get more non technical minded people using RSS the feed: launch is probably the easiest method of doing this.
One of the reasons we are using an RSS directory with the feed: subscribe protocol to get people who have never used RSS before to actually start using this great resource which has been around for almost 10 years. http://www.feedtime.com
